My boyfriend were walking by this bar and noticed we were shouted out by bingo players for animal rescue! They were super cool and got us drinks on them since we were visiting from out of town. Totally recommend the huckleberry beer. It's a perfect balance of sweetness but still refreshing. Staff was incredibly friendly and the atmosphere was so welcoming and loving. Highly recommend swinging by! read more

I haven't been here yet, but plan on it very soon. I have seen and heard so many good reviews about the atmosphere, plus the fact that you can oder food from adjacent Fireflour Pizza, and have it delivered to you, makes it a win win. I know David Duma(owner). I graduated from St.Mary's Central High School with him(1986). Dave has always kind, courteous, polite. I really look forward to stopping in one of these days. I might even get myself a personalized mug. I will see you in the not too distant future Dave read more

Great service. Actually had the mango habenero sour...I don't usually like sours but this one is great. Not sweet at all! Cool atmosphere. Nice place! read more

We decided to try out this small brewery in the old Laughing Sun location, after visiting Laughing Sun at their current location. You can still order pizza from next door, so, that hasn't changed. There is popcorn to help yourself to & a sign for beer infused meat sticks - no other food. Staff were friendly and happy to supply samples and give a run down of the options. It quickly became clear that this is a place with lots of local regulars, (with their own mugs to prove it), & a very relaxed, friendly environment where everyone (except us) seemed to know each other. There was a small stage in the back, we left right around 6pm & there wasn't entertainment at that time. There are a few round tables that seat between 2-8 people and a standard bar top, which was apparently the place to be with standing room only remaining. We opted for a 2 seater and sampled a few brews. I went all in on the butter beer, which I regretted about halfway through. Don't get me wrong, it delivered exactly what it promised, which got to be a bit much. If you've a sweet tooth, this one is for you - very butterscotch forward, no hoppiness. My next choice was the winterweizen, which was on the money & probably where I should've started. In all, we had 4 brews & several samples at $29 All of them were balanced & hit the descriptions. This feels like a place where someone may feel inclined to hug you - by which I mean everyone seemed happy & very comfortable... almost like family without the fighting. I'd certainly recommend giving them a try, maybe even getting your own mug if you're local. (We aren't) read more

This is the place you should be going. If you're reading this review, trust me. They have a good variety of beers and sours which I love! I don't know if I'll ever make it back to ND but if I do, this is my first stop. Bonus points for having hockey on and a bartender from MI ;) read more

I was only in Bismarck for Sat/Sun/Mon. Unfortunately, Gideon's is closed on Sundays, so I had to wait for my last night. Too bad -- I'd love to go again. They have a really nice variety of beers and their Butter Beer was a unique experience. The server was especially nice. So patient and lovely to talk with. I would post a photo, but I didn't ask her permission. (Keira...message me if I could post your photo.) They don't serve food, but not to worry. They have a cooperative arrangement with the pizzeria (Fireflour) next door. The servers next door will bring your order right to you in the pub. And their pizzas were amazing...the combinations and the crusts. Very original. (I just checked their Yelp ratings, and they have a very well-deserved 4 1/2 star rating.) If I ever get back to Bismarck (unlikely...unless I hear from Keira...just kidding...I'm old enough to be her grandpa), I would head back to Gideon's on my first night. read more

Small local brewery, stopped here while in town. Great beers. Tried a flight of sours and loved them. Highly recommend the Blue Bliss ale and the White Choc Raspberry! read more

Gideon's Brewing Company 107 N 5th St, Bismarck, ND 58501 February 6, 2021, Saturday - 12 noon for takeout beer 1 Adult Atmosphere - 5 stars Drink - 4 stars Service - 4 stars Background - Staying with my family for a bit in Minot. I have a Costco membership and they wanted to check the place out. I wanted to hit a local brewery while visiting the capitol city. The rest of the group are not a beer drinkers so it was just me for the visit. Atmosphere - I love going to small breweries. This is tiny as they come. I found out while there that they are a 15 barrel house. Even with a small brewery they provide a great variety of taps. Standard bar and with high top tables, and a bar that looks out onto the street with the closed glass garage door. Drink - I brought a growler in case they were out of crowlers. But I want to try a few and my 64 ounce growler would only provide one taste. I tried two of their beers via 16 ounce crowlers as it was a hit and run visit. Rambunctious Haze a New England India Pale Ale and then Imperial Rolo Stout. Who does not love Rolo's? That was my favorite of the two beers. They had hard seltzers on tap too, I not of a fan of these so I did not try any of them. Service - During COVID pandemic I was surprised to find the bartender not wearing a mask. He was friendly and helpful. After I got back home to Minot I wanted to try my IPA, I found and issue with that crowler. I called to see what they could do and find a solution. The solution was more than I expected, so kudos to them. Future - If I am in the Bismarck and would love to try some more of their beers. read more

This is a new brewpub that moved into the old Laughing Sun location. Everything has been refreshed and is bright and shiny. They had a nice selection of beers and also a selection of hard seltzers. It's brewed, just like beer, but then fruit flavoring is added. For those who don't like the apple base of cider, the hard seltzer was very refreshing. RL had the blackberry, which was scrumptious. I had the chocolate stout because I missed the new porter by one day. It was decent, but I think I would have been happier with the porter. Service was very friendly, with the only drawback being the large round tables and hard metal seats. Sitting with strangers on a long table isn't so bad, because you don't have to look at each other, but I Imagine when Gideon's gets busy, you will have to learn to be friendly fast. The best thing about the location is that you can sit in the pub and order from Fireflour Pizza or Anima Cucina! They even have their menus on the tables! read more

Great service and the best Paloma seltzer I have ever had! We stopped there almost every day we were visiting Bismarck. We were offered a discount based on the recognition of the day, i.e. teachers, military, first responders. The last day we were there, they weren't quite ready to open, but they let us come in anyway! read more

Great place! Passing through town and enjoyed friendly conversation with the bartender!

Great atmosphere! They have really set it up nicely. Service is good and my favorite at all breweries is the live bands

Awesome beer and better service! Tom was super friendly and welcoming. If you're in Bismarck come give this place a try!

Great beer and very unique options! It's a great small brewery. Beer Menu is up on a tv behind the little stage and a chalkboard sports the current selections as well. The small space only has an issue when people stand with the door open in the ND cold. We will definitely be back here! read more

plan on staying longer if you visit, Woody was professional, courteous, and knowledgeable. Normally I enjoy a porter, I enjoyed the Blueberry Bliss on Nitro. If I lived in Bismarck, I'd be a regular! read more

Staff was super friendly, beer was great and full of variety. Tables have lots of game options from chess to pinochle. Great place to spend a few hours with friends. read more

I was in town visiting in-laws and popped in here to grab a beer before dinner. The true highlight of this place is the customer service and laid back, intimate atmosphere. The bar tender was very quick to get us samples and help us find beers we liked -- it's definitely a good spot if you're into out of the box, flavored beers. I like more traditional beers without lots of added flavors, and he was very accommodating to go find me a Belgian that they had taken off tap. Very happy I stopped by! read more

A great place to hang out and enjoy some unique beers. There were at least a dozen beers on the menu including IPA, Porter, Stout, and several sours. It was the fruited sours that won us over. These sours are special because of the unique combinations of flavors. We've been traveling the country and visiting breweries in small and large cities and this brewery has been one of our favorites. read more
